ORGANIZATIONAL INNOVATION

Innovation is a crucial component of business strategy, but the process of innovation may seem difficult to manage. To plan organizational initiatives around innovation or to bolster innovation requires a firm grasp of the innovation process with the knowledge, skills, and values to effectively apply various business principles and tools in an organizational setting. Organizational innovation is designed to bridge the gap between theory and practical application, while examining the areas of accounting, critical thinking and decision-making, finance, business law, management, marketing, organizational behavior, research and evaluation and technology.

Organization Innovation (OI) focuses on strategic performance improvement of all business planning, global sourcing and procurement, production and logistical activities that make up an organization's supply chain. The program highlights the important role a supply chain plays in satisfying customer demands and expectations. The program also emphasizes a company's need to develop and maintain a sustainable competitive advantage through the efficient and effective performance of all operations within its supply chain.
